Is prayer and mediation the same thing? I believe they are similar, but not
identical.

This is a science group. Can you please give proof of this? Not your
beliefs, but proof. So the Bible is out, unless you can demostrate in a
scientific way that the Bible in this matter is true.

Perhaps peer-reviewed articles that show that is God's intervention, rather
than just belief or meditation that is doing this.

I understand there are articles that show that people who live thier lives
according to their beliefs live longer (e.g., Christians going to church,
giving to charity, etc.). This includes athiests who do whatever athiests
are supposed to do.
